In a1 i have 100.888 and a2 122.222 and a3 122.555UK,(and so on) in column b i want just want the number and not the uk, i have tried =left(a1,7) which works until a3 then it give me characters 122.555 and not the number/value 122.55. I need it as a value to use the vlookup, how do i do it?
View 3 RepliesIn a large database with a large portion of cells that contains a flag to the left of a number "<LD 2.0" what would be the quickest way to move the flag to the left of the number so that it reads "2.0 <LD". This seems like it should be simple to do. I would prefer not to have to use a second cell and formula to do the modification if that makes sense. I'd rather do a "Find and Replace" if possible.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI have two formula i use to pull out the number from text in a cell (J2), the problem i am having is that it will only pull out numbers up to 99,999 and i now have numbers over a million in some case that i need to report on.
I have two way I have been doing this see below, how can i change them so they will pull the number over a million?
I am sure it easy but i have tried all sort and i can not get it to work...
=LOOKUP(100000,--MID(J2,MIN(FIND({0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9},J2&"0123456789")),ROW(INDIRECT("1:10"))))
OR
=LOOKUP(99^99,--("0"&MID(J2,MIN(SEARCH({0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9},J2&"0123456789")),ROW($1:$10000))))
I have to put different ticket numbers for a company with some code. At present, I am manually copying and pasting data (which is too difficult as sometimes, tickets may be more than 300). So, suggest some easy way out, keeping in mind that I am new to Excel. I want this as output.
Company Name= New Horizons
Code=CS/02
Number of Tickets=1/300
Here, I want to increment number of tickets automatically like 1/300, 2/300, 3/300 till 300/300 and all the other entities like Company name and code should remain same. My rest of data remains same except number of tickets through out. I also have to print same data.
I am trying to pull a value (text) from another spreadsheet corresponding with a number. I can't use vlookup because none of them are in a left column. HEre's an example:
there are 2 columns with names and percentages. I am trying to pull a name that corresponds to a certain percentage.
I'm trying to pull a specific 10 digit number from a text string. The ID # is always 10 digits however sometimes there are dates in the data that need to be excluded as well as other numbers such as "I-9". The 10 digit number will always start with 1 or 8. Is there a macro or Formula to extract this data? Please find the example dataset below.
Edit: I should specify I want the "100118416" number from the first cell example or the "800011320" number from the 10th example.

I am having an issue with formatting a cell to 'general'. I have a macro that runs using a formula (i.e. =MID(A12, 18,5)) to extract certain characters from an external data source. I then use only the values of that formula. There then is another macro that compares that value to another value in another worksheet. The issue I am having is when the macro runs, the code is read as ActiveCell.Offset(0, 3).Value...but instead of returning the value in 'general' format, it returns it with what appears to be text (i.e. "75.50" instead of 75.5). This acts as a mismatch since the quotes appear.
I have attempted several things to correct, but even if I try to format-->general it maintains the quotes. The only way it changes is if I click within the cell...then it turns to general (i.e."75.00" becomes 75.5). I am not sure what is the issue.
I am blanking out. I want to pull the data out until a space (one formula from the left and one from the right). Ithink it's a mid function but not sure.
Example
John, Doe
I would like to get:
John,
and
Doe
I'm looking for a formula that pulls the text from a cell unti it hits a space. I'm using the formula below but keep getting #VALUE results. B1: =LEFT(A1,FIND(",",A1,1)). I know it's not that hard but can't figure it out.

Character before required text is say AAA
Character after required text is say BBB
Text required can vary in length.
Extract text and place in another column.
All text in a single column, required text not in every line. but
does repeat.
I am wanting to get a function that can get the number from a fractions left side only . 13/14 2/1 1/5 etc
Col A varies in lenght so using a right function doesnt always work .
The result i need is in col B .

I have a spreadsheet with 3 columns. The first column has a list of numbers, the second column has a list of numbers, and the third column has a code, one of which is “IP”
I want to look up IP, when I find it I need to get the number in the column to it’s left, on the same row. Then I need to look up that number in the first column (which will be on a separate row). I then need to change the word in the third column of that row to “Kit”.
Col. A has numbers
Col. B has numbers, some of which are the same as in Col. A, but not in the same row
Col. C has a code, one of which is ‘IP’
I want to look for ‘IP’ in column C. When I find it, I want to get the number corresponding number from Col. B (same row), then look up that number in Col. A. (remember, Col. A and Col. B have some of the same numbers, they are just not in the same row).
When I find that number in Col. A, I want to change the code that is in Col. C, from that same row, to read “Kit”
Example: I find “IP” in Col. C. The coinciding number in Col. B is “4630.0”. I find that number in Col. A (one row down) and need to change the “CP” in Col. C to “Kit”.
Col. A Col. B Col. C
12345.0 46730.0 IP
46730.0 CP – (this needs to be changed to “Kit”)
I have numbers in a cell such as 1/25, 4/31, 12/35 etc I have the current formula to extract the left or right number but when there is only a single digit it also includes the / is there a way of eliminating this.
The numbers vary from 1 to 2 digits.
My current formula is =IF(C15<18,LEFT(E8,2))+IF(C15>18,RIGHT(E8,2))
I only want it to show the number not the forward slash
I have a table of data that I need to find the leftmost and rightmost number in that are greater than a specified number in another cell. I've attached a spreadsheet to show what I've got to work with.
I need to do this 1 row at a time and have the outcome in descending cells on the right hand side of the 2 example rows.
Basically I have a phone number in column A:
123-456-1234
In column B, I want it to show me the first 3 numbers from the left, (so 123)
So I do =LEFT(A2,3)
Which gives me 123, but it's displayed as text, which ruins my whole formula that looks up the area code and displays the state.
I googled the problem and found http://exceltip.com/st/Make_LEFT_Fun...umber/778.html
which tells me to do:
=IF(LEFT(A1,1)=1,"Ignore",A1) [sees 1 as a number]
=IF(LEFT(A1,1)+0=1,"Ignore",A1) [sees 1 as a number]
=IF(LEFT(A1,1)="1","Ignore",A1) [sees 1 as text]
but when i try that it just displays the ENTIRE phone number: 123-456-1234
Pretty sure this has been asked but have searched the forum to no avail, but I need to extract the numbers from a value which has a letter on the end.
eg. 1000x I need to get out the 1000
or 2p I need the 2
I have sooooo many values ranging in numbers of digits, so just basic left(A1,2) won't work, I'm sure I've seen a search or find function but don't know how to use them!
reading a zero number in a cell
here an example :
on Cell A1 = 01
on Cell B2 = 10
so I write at C1 the formula is =left(A1,1) but how come the number that comes out is 1 not 0 (zero) ?
but if I write at D1 the formula is = right(A1,1) the number comes out is 0 (zero)
how to make the formula that can read the zero in Cell C1?
I have a spreadsheet that has item names and then at the end the manufacturer number. I'd want to find way cut that manufacturer number off the end and move it to its own column.
I pasted some examples below of what it looks like. It is just coincidence that the items below all that the same length...they are all of varying lengths. The one thing they all have in common is that it the last thing in the cell and seperated by a space. I would think there would be a way to find the last space in the cell and cut everything to the right of that. I can do it in a macro if necessary, but where to start.

How can you make the text of a checkbox appear on th left hand side of the checkbox?
or can it only appear onthe right?
else is there a way to make the text box not exist or invisible,
Its just that I have infomation underneath and I need to be able to access it?
I have attached an example. Basically I had this set up to calculate the row and give the answer at the end. But now I cant see the results without scrolling, so I want to move the answer fields to the C column and add new data into the D column while keeping all the data in the formula.

Im trying to pull together a formula to achieve the below. What i have is a spreadsheet to be used by staff in different countries so im looking to make it easy to modify the categories used without the user needing to do anything complex with formulas.
The right hand side of my file (C:E) shows a code for each year we have covered a country with the year as a prefix (2014 - Blah). The left (A:B) is a summary showing the latest year we covered that country.
Current formula:
{=IF(COUNTA(C2:D2)<=0,"","✔-"&MAX(LEFT(C2:D2&"0",4)*1))}
The current formula works fine if you set the columns to where the data actually is but for ease of use i need it to look at the data in rows 1:2 and match up the Continent/Country and then MAX the dates.
I have WorkbookA that pull numbers from WorkbookB. In Cell D2 of WorkbookA is the name of WorkbookB. The data to be pulled from WorkbookB is in Cells H364 through S364, H being data for January and S being data for December. In January, the data from Cell H364 is pulled into WorkbookA. In February, the data from Cell I364 is pulled into WorkbookA, and so on.
The formula can be written such that, based on WorkbookA indicating in Cell B14 the current month, each month pulls the correct month's data from these cells in WorkbookB.
